Convocation of Arts and Scholars |
|
The hard work and talents of Reinhardt students was showcased at the annual Robert L. Driscoll Convocation of Artists and Scholars this week. Music, performances, displays, and presentations spanning all disciplines filled the two-day event.
Students showed off their expertise in their areas of study, presenting their research or displaying their talents. Math, science, and nursing posters displayed the exploration and findings of numerous research projects, while other students spoke about their successful projects. There were poetry readings, solo musical performances, presentations on internships and work experiences, and much more.
This event gives the community an opportunity to see first-hand the learning and development occurring at the university. It’s a harmonious representation of Reinhardt’s thriving liberal arts and sciences environment.

Reinhardt University is proud to have Scott Wade as a graduate this May. With magna cum laude honors, he will receive a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Studio Art with a minor in Creative Writing, just before his 55th birthday. He is also looking forward to the upcoming student art show, where his paintings will be on display.
Wade is one of only three seniors nominated for non-traditional student of the year. A wounded veteran, he served 12 years of active duty and received over 20 service medals and commendations. While at Reinhardt, he’s been active with campus veterans’ events and advocating for veteran resources, services and support systems.
Wade assisted in the development of Green Zone Training at Reinhardt, which educates teachers on how to talk to, teach, and support student veterans. In the past year, nineteen faculty and staff have completed training and are Green Zone certified.
